This works for me

tell application “Safari”
activate
if not (exists document 1) then
make new document at the beginning of documents
end if
set the URL of the front document to “http://macscripter.net”
delay 10
end tell

Any objection to:

open location “http://macscripter.net”

That works fine for me after I replace the smart quotes (" “) with plain ones (” ").
